1 Kings 8:56-61

56“Blessed be the Lord! He has given rest to his people Israel according to all he has said. Not one of all the good promises he made through his servant Moses has failed.

57May the Lord our God be with us as he was with our ancestors. May he not abandon us or leave us

58so that he causes us to be devoted to him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commands, statutes, and ordinances, which he commanded our ancestors.

59May my words with which I have made my petition before the Lord be near the Lord our God day and night. May he uphold his servant’s cause and the cause of his people Israel, as each day requires.

60May all the peoples of the earth know that the Lord is God. There is no other!

61Be wholeheartedly devoted to the Lord our God to walk in his statutes and to keep his commands, as it is today.”
